感恩 (Thanksgiving)

感恩 (Thanksgiving)
以色列 中東  Israel Middle East 2005

新天新地，從宇宙開始的第一天， 己擁有她獨特的氣質與內在美，石塊上不斷擴展的銹色，扭結頑強的樹紋、浩瀚磅礴的原野，路邊的一個水中倒影， 都是自然，情真。

這位創造天地的主果真是一位世界上最傑出的藝術家，不管過路人是否察覺衪的存在，仍殷勤地為世界塗添姿彩， 一年四季，春夏秋冬， 都各有獨特誘人的氣息。

常感歎人的智慧有限， 往往未能明白上主的心意和宇宙的奧秘。

真、善、美， 從世界開始的第一天便存在， 但是我們又可曾領會呢？

『我仰視你親手創造的天空，觀看你陳設的月亮星辰。啊，人算甚麼，你竟顧念他！必朽的人算甚麼，你竟關懷他！』

(詩篇8:3-4)

As the new world descended upon us, its beauty and unique charisma have been reflected through its magnificent wonders. The rocks’ colors spread like a painter’s palette; the intertwining networks of twigs and branches; the breathtaking fields and street side reflections, all are natural wonders that touch the heart.

Praised for His creative artistry, The Creator really is the most ingenious artist. His existence acknowledged or not by humans alike, does not matter, as He paints the world with artful sincerity and honesty, the reflections of truth and beauty. All seasons – Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter bear the seductive yet indulging beauty.

Boasting on human intelligence, often times our incompatibilities are once again shown as we fail to understand and acknowledge the Creator’s will and mysteries of the universe.
Truth, Compassion, and Beauty — the long standing pillars standing ever since the world exists, but are they standing firmly in our hearts?

“When I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have put in their places – What is man, that you keep him in mind? the son of man, that you take him into account?"

(Psalms8:3-4)
